I bet it's the same one as the ones on the new 92. The folks at MGW have always been very knowledgeable and helpful, I bet their tech dept would know for sure if they're the same.

I checked a couple days ago and no joy. Stopped by the 'fire tonight and saw you'd been successful so didn't linger and picked up one for myself. It's going on a Browning Low Wall 357. I love thtat little rifle but the receiver peeps have more drawbacks than advantages. Can't wait to try it out. “My horn is full and my pouch is stocked with ball and patch.
